Cadmium Bouquet 33x26

Designer: Porter Teleo

Pétales features painterly, gestural and heavily layered flower petals and stems, focusing on the movement and fluidity of the organic forms they represent. The brushstrokes and blending inks are reminiscent of pooling water, streak-filled clouds, and other beautiful surfaces found in nature.

This pattern is hand-painted on the highest-quality Japanese rice paper.

All pigments are mixed by hand, using the most saturated raw form of inks and dyes available. The paper has been made by the same family in a small Japanese mountain village for over 1,300 years. The village's main source of water is a fresh water river that flows through the town providing abundant plant life for the pulp material. The end products are all completely archival and the end result is without comparison.
